THANK YOU FOR A WILDLY SUCCESSFUL EVENING

NACF’s fundraising gala on September 7 was wildly successful! Lots of chatting, good food and drink plus a very exciting live auction that netted $14,000 to help grow NACF’s endowment. One of the evening’s highlights was the public announcement of a $100,000 donation by Jennifer Turrentine. Click this link to read her moving keynote speech.

NACF Endowment funds will support critical needs in Burnett and northern Polk Counties TODAY! TOMORROW! FOREVER!

WEBB LAKE COMMUNITY HELPS FUND KNOW YOUR NONPROFIT EXPO

 

Webb Lake Community Club sponsors the Know Your Nonprofit Expo

Webb Lake Community Club, for the second year in a row, is sponsoring the Know Your Nonprofit Expo set for October 17, 2024. This generous grant from Webb Lake allows NACF to offer table space at the Expo free of charge to our nonprofits!

The Expo will be co-hosted by 100 Women Who Care/Polk Burnett and will take place at the Zhashagiins Event Center in Siren.

This event is open to the public. It's an opportunity for both local nonprofits and the public to come together to get to know each other.

If you're looking for volunteer opportunities or a chance to help guide a nonprofit, almost all nonprofits need your help. Some need volunteers, some need board members. All need money to support their good works.

JOIN US on October 17th from 5-7. Show your support for your local community by learning more about the many organizations that serve needs locally and how you can help!
